about




My name's Jennifer, but I'm more commonly known as Jen or Sporkster. I love lots of things/people including God; volleyball and soccer, my two favorite sports; and cheese. I also love Pi, but that's a story for another day.

I've been answering questions on Advicenators for over three years now, so I'm pretty experienced with it. I love answering questions and helping you out anyway I can, so if you've got a question, just ask me!

Ask me about: Christianity, athletics, physical fitness, love-life, relationships, friendships, HTML queries, book suggestions, music suggestions, musical theory, history, English (or Spanish) grammar, Paint Shop Pro 8, skin problems, sports injuries, "punk" fashion, nutrition, etc.

Q: i like this guy and hes my friend a really good friend but hes really shy. right? and i thought he liked me by the way he acted but idk how ican find out with out him knowing or being too obvious. HELP

love stricken brunette

A: You can't just look for signals when you want to know whether a guy likes you or not. Guys are the biggest flirts there are. So if a guy flirts like, one time, that doesn't mean he likes you. Just ask him. Or if you're uncomfortable with that, ask his guy friend to ask him. Sounds simple, eh?

Q: Im a straight A student and I have never really cared much about my grades. It isn't hard for me to get a A at my school. I am in 6th grade and I know this isn't very serious but I'm worried. I have gotten a B+ on my test in math...yeah I know no big deal...and I know it isn't. I just took it as a sign to pay attention in class, which I do. I recently got a A+ on my math test so everything is fine in math. I'm not worried about any of my other classes except language arts. For the past two quarters its been a easy A. I got a B or a B+ on one of my tests and I was like alright, that was just a mistake I made and I'll be sure to pay more attention. Well we did these powerpoint presentations on the book 'The Cay' and I got a C on it. I was at a 92% and I'm not sure how far this will drop my grade. I really don't want to have to get a b+ on my report card. I know I sound pretty preppy or whatever but it's not that. My dad has been having 'trouble' letting go of me lately because boys have been asking me out and my friensd are trying to get me to go to the movies with the boys and I've been buying shorter skirts...and I know he isn't exactly the happiest man in the world. I just know he would be dissappointed if I came home. The real question is , is there anything I can do to bring my grade up?

A: Focus on school!!! You've obviously been focused on boys way too much. And I don't know about you, but the guys at my school aren't worth it. I would focus on math because that is VERY important later on in life.

Q: Can anyone tell me if surfing is hard or easy or anything? I mean, it looks totally awesome! I lived in Hawaii for 5 and a half years, but that was when I was in, like, 1st grade. Well, I moved to CA in the middle of 1st grade. Please tell me if it is hard or easy. I really want to know!

Thanx!

A: Surfing was difficult for me to learn, but after I did learn, it was really easy. I love surfing now! I hope that helps.

Q: i think i may like one of my good boy friends but im not sure if he likes me how do i find out and how do i respond

A: *sigh* Okay, first of all, it's easy to tell whether a guys likes you or not. He will constantly follow you around and he will look at you. Alot. He will laugh at all of your corny jokes even if they're really, really stupid. He would sacrifice himself for you. Well, that is, extrovert guys. Shy guys will just look at you alot and act weird around you.
If one of their friends tells you he likes you he will blush the deepest red imaginable. How do you find out? Well, ask him. D'oh. How do you respond? How the heck do you think you respond??!??! If you like him, that's great! If you don't , don't go out with him just because you are desperate. I hope my advice has been of some assistance to you. *cough* Good day.

Q: I've been leaving my window open at night because the room is so hot, and some time within the last month I have developed an odd crawling, painful sensation in my stomach. At night I have interesting dreams about creatures laughing and poking me with sticks and blue lightning coming from the ground. I am beginning to think I'm in serious trouble.

The thing I'm wondering most is, am i carrying a demon child or an alien one? I would much rather have a demon child, because with aliens, who knows? I find demons a bit more amiable and predictable. Plus, demons generally speak English. Can anyone tell me if I'm pregnant by a demon or an alien?

A: Girl, what kind of drugs are you on???

Q: If toast always lands butter-side down, and cats always land on their feet, what happens if you strap toast to a cat and drop it? My first friend said that the cat would eat the toast. My 2nd friend wanted to know what kind of toast: rye, or sourdough, and when I said it was regular white bread, she bit me. I said that the cat and toast would be sucked into a rift in the space-time continuum and the world would end. Who is right?

A: None of you. My rabid anti-bleach socks ate the cat... and the toast. You all lose! Ha ha ha ha!

Q: What happens if you put this side up face down while popping microwave popcorn?

A: It explodes. Ha ha... I tried that this one time, and the plate it was on melted. But maybe that was 'cause it was a plastic plate... 0_0 I dunno.

Q: I am a quiter how can i prevent it.
